Welcome to YOUR LOCAL PANTRY

The River Church Wales,  "FOOD Co-op"

The cost of living has been spiralling in recent years. At River Church we have two initiatives available to help our local community to make ends meet and put food on the table.

River Church Pantry, is a co-operative Food Shop. We work with the national charity “Your Local Pantry” to source food and other items from local or national retailers and producers. This stock is made available to us at a much reduced price and we can pass on HUGE savings to our members. 

For just £5 you can come and choose items from Our Pantry, which will be worth a whole lot more than that! (Most baskets are valued between £30 and £40) Every week we  also have fresh items (such as fruit and veg) which you can add to your shop for no extra cost.

You don’t need to be referred - the scheme is here to help anyone in the NP12 postcode who needs a bit of extra help with the bills… but you do need to join to become a member. 

You can do that online here: https://www.yourlocalpantry.co.uk/join-a-pantry/   (pop in your Postode and you will find us)

Or Call 07549 925 002 and chat with one of our team.

Food bank

We have run a traditional Foodbank at River Church Since 2008. This is still on-going. 

Our Foodbank is a FREE - EMERGENCY - SHORT TERM  service, if you find yourself in financial problems for whatever reason please reach out to us. Our staff are friendly, approachable and want to help. Many of our Foodbank Clients go on to become members of our Pantry and receive longer term help.
